Chapter 271
The voice from the speakers caught everyone’s attention instantly. All the media personnel pointed their cameras at the
screen.
They could see the sea on the screen. A person wearing a panda costume appeared on the feed. Nothing could be discerned from the person’s voice or figure.
Kelvin ran to Ethan and reported, “Our computers have been hacked.”
Ethan signaled to Brent with his eyes. He instantly knew what he had to do.
Marina had yet to show up. It was apparent that something had gone wrong.
Ethan stood with his hands behind his back and a stormy expression on his face. He didn’t expect something to happen today. To pick this particular day to take action, the culprit had gone to great lengths to plan their move.
Ethan instantly thought up several ways to handle the situation. Brent quietly moved away. He was going to try and track the broadcasting signal to locate the enemy.
In the meantime, Ethan would be responsible for buying time. He stared coldly at the screen and asked, “Do you have her?” Ethan was sure they must have left some communication device on location, like the spy cameras they had planted in his office. Ethan had found some leads, but as soon as his men went looking, they would already be gone.
He had been waiting for the mastermind to show themselves. But he didn’t expect it to happen during his engagement ceremony.
The guests realized something was wrong. They were wondering what happened. They found it hard to believe that Marina had been kidnapped.
The guests felt tense but excited at the same time. A live kidnapping was not something they got to see every day.
No one dared to talk, not even the influencers that were live-streaming. They were quietly filming everything that was happening.
The person in the panda costume said cockily, “Who are you asking about?”
The question sent shockwaves into the crowd. The guests didn’t expect someone to kidnap Ethan’s fiancée, much less one more person.
.Ethan started to lose his cool. He suddenly recalled Olivia congratulating him on his engagement. He had thought something was off this morning. It wasn’t like Olivia to call him and mock him.
What she would’ve done was stay away from him. After all, she never wanted to see him again. She had acted weird, and Ethan had even wondered if something happened to her.
Ethan’s hands clenched harder behind his back as the thought crossed his mind. He asked icily, “What do you mean by that?” The person in the panda costume shrugged. “It’s exactly what you think it is. I’ve taken your fiancée.”
The crowd burst into a commotion instantly.
Amidst the chaos, the person added, “Not only do I have your flancée, but I also have your ex-wife,” “What? When did Ethan have an ex-wife?”
“Didn’t he save himself for ten years for his true love? Where did this ex-wife come from?”
“He was seen being intimate with a woman on the cruise ship a while ago. And now it turns out that he has an ex-wife. This man is trash.”
“He has never announced any information about his ex-wife. She must be someone he’s embarra*sed of.”
“Rather than the kidnapping, I’m more curious about who Ethan’s ex-wife is.”
Chapter 271
The guests on location and the live-stream viewers began gossiping about Ethan’s relationships.
The camera abruptly cut away from the person in the panda costume. The feed showed the ocean, clear skies, and seagulls flying. It would be a peaceful scene if not for the two women dangling on ropes.
Marina was wearing her expensive dress. The guests could see the tears flowing from her eyes even though she was blindfolded. She was in shock.
The woman next to her had the same treatment. The upper half of her face was covered up. Only her chin and l*ps were visible. Ethan clenched his fists so hard his palms were bleeding.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
